Sunny spells and warm today. Always cloudier to the north and west and some cloud will bubble up inland at times. Great week of very warm and sunny weather ahead.

I hate the clocks going backwards and forwards. When I was young, we didn’t even have clocks. If we got hungry, we ate each other. We were poor, but we were happy. Good times. Not that we had time. It hadn’t been invented. We had to make our own time out of string and cholera.

It is so sad that my intelligent, 14 Yr old granddaughter can no longer attend school as she can't walk. The waiting list to see the consultant is 15 weeks. Too much time without education at this important time. Why doesn't her future matter?
